Flex Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 (edited) £500 including courier would entertain a trade with a Spector 4 string bass I am selling my Yamaha BB1024 which is in as new condition, less than 1 hours play time and kept in its gig-bag. A P/J bass that just rocks... fabulous.... As I am not using the bass better to move it on, this bass is immaculate, as in brand new condition. Great bass.. just check reviews on the net.... I rate this series of bass highly and at a very good price point. I have a BB2025 that I use as my main bass so this is not being used. I am near Kettering if you wish to try her out.... [b] Yamaha BB1024 (Vintage White)[/b] [color=#000000][font=Tahoma][size=2]BB1024 incorporates many of the same features found in the BB2000 series such as, spline joint body and 5-piece neck, diagonal body thru stringing, newly developed pickups and bridge. This bass gives strong presence in sound with defined low end.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Tahoma][size=2]BB1024 has employed a 3-piece body structure with which its bridge is placed on the center piece in order to translate the maximum amount of string vibration to the body. Instead of simply gluing wood pieces, we insert a Maple plate, called "Splin", into a slot on its joint sections. By doing that, Yamaha has succeeded in obtaining as much body vibration as 1-piece body with this 3-piece body structure.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Tahoma][size=2]In Diagonal Body Thru Stringing, strings are angled 45 degreed at the saddle to reduce the stress and secure their tension. Moreover, because the attachment area of strings to saddles is larger than conventional vertcial stringing, much better transmisson of vibration is obtained.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Tahoma][size=2]Both front and rear pickups are specially invented for this particular series. Pursuing ultimate passive sound, "Open Face Pickups" are used to cope with even aggressive picking of rock players.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Tahoma][size=2]These necks consist of Maple and Nato. It provides durability and prevents necks from warping and curling.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Tahoma][size=2]Nickel Silver is selected for nut. It is the same material with fret wires. Unlike conventional bone or artificial ivory nut, it gives the same sound quality and feeling even when open notes are played. For any bass players it is a crucial part of well-defined low end.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Tahoma][size=2]This is stock photo, will add photo's tonight..[/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Tahoma][size=2][attachment=166531:BB1024.jpg][/size][/font][/color] Edited July 13, 2014 by Flex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
